Panic on a Bark.

Special to the Globe.
New YORK, Aug. IA singular ac-
cident occurred to the bark Maria Louisa
last Saturday night, which caused a Sc
riOus panic among 100 persons n board.
The vessel was on her way from Ha-
vana to the Canary islands, and besides
her crew and cargo, carried seventy-siX
passengers. She put into this port
Wednesday for repairs and went on the
dry dock. The passengers and crew
were all on board shortly before
midnight, when heavy swell
from passing steamer caused
the bark to careen to an
angle of 45o. A panic Immediately en-
sued, the passengers trampling each
other in the wild confusion. AmbrOs
ROdriZuQeZ, aged seventeen, was struck
by broken mast and killed. Six or
seven other persons were mere or less
injured in various ways. The remain
der of those aboard reached shore safely
with the aid of the police. The damage
to the vessel cannot yet be ascertained,
as it will take day or two to right her.

SARAH'S TOILET SET.
The Bernhardt Has a Curious
Combination Made to Order.

Specialize the GLOBE.
New YORK, Aug. 14.-Just before
Sarah Bernhardt started for the West
dropped into Tiffany's and ordered a
$50 toilet set. There were to be
gigantic waSbowl, big enough to bathe
in, with tremendous pitcher to match,
not to mention an OvergrOwn pair of
puff boxes and several other enormous
things. In marked contrast to the re-
mainder of the set there was to be a
second washbowl and pitcher as re-
markably small as the others were un-
usually large. All were to be in solid
sterling silver and Sarah'S monogram
and coat of arms in chased gold
must decorate each piece. One of Tiff
fany's designing young men combined
few of his own ideas with those fur
nished by Bernhardt and sketched off a
toilet set, the like of which never before
existed even on paper. Sarah went
into ecStaSieS which verged on the hys-
terical when she saw the drawings, and
prayed that the things might be made at
the earliest possible moment and sent
to her Immediately III whatever part of
the world she might be. The TffanyS
set their skilled wOrkmen at the task
forthwith. During the last days of July
it was completed. Bernhardt was in
France and thither the goods were
shipped. The toilet set was delivered by
the Paris house yesterday, and
ornaments Bernhardt'S bOudoir for the
first time to-day. The large pitcher is
fifteen and one-half inches high, and
has capacity of five gallons. The
bowl which goes with it is more than
two feet in diameter and will hold eight
gallons. The small bowl is only nine
inches in diameter and its companion
pitcher is scarcely seven inches high.
The puff boxes are four times the Ordi-
nary size and the trays arc each foot
in length. The coat of arms represents
tragedy and comedy, a dagger and a
fools bauble crossed behind mask.
Beneath are interlaeed the initials of
her name, half concealed by streamer
